CRAZY |
Heidi Lynn Knowles, was walking around the Vancouver, WA, fast food joint trying to peddle her newborn baby boy taking bids from anywhere between $500 to $5000.
Deputies said she seemed drunk or high, but Knowles, who also goes by her married name Heidi Lynn Gasaway, insisted she had been clean of methamphetamine for over a year.
Instead her father John Knowles told KOIN TV that she may have been suffering from post partum depression, although like the baby's mother, he said he had no idea when the baby was born or who the father was.
The manager of Kay's Motel, where she had been staying said her father was picking up the tab for the 35-year-old mother, when the police came.
Patty Morris said: "When I went into her room the baby was clean it was obviously fed because it wasn't crying it was usually napping like new babies do.
"It was always centered in the middle of the bed she seemed to be doing a good job."
The boy is now in the care of Child Protective Services, while his mother was charged with attempted child selling-buying and held on $50,000 bail.
She's also facing drug possession, theft and bail-jumping charges from outstanding warrants.
